RESUME
As Pon and Ventor were talking the ground was shocked but unlike the other this time it is more powerful and more destructive that the ground cracked but thanks to the cave's metal coating, their base remained safe.
They heard a hissing sound from behind and they turned their head and saw Hisses. "Master!" Hisses said to Pon. "Oh, it's just you," Pon said to Hisses.
"Master, We can't kill that giant bird brain." Hisses said and Pon replied. "I know, that's why when he arrived here I will unsummon all of you and hide inside the record."
"But Master, we can't just hide forever."
"I know, that but you saw me fight him right I am no match to that monster."
"I know someone can." Hisses said as she raises her head.
"Who?!" Pon asked doubting that someone can really beat the demon god.
"Medusa." Hisses said as he stared into Pon's eyes.
"Medusa? The Medusa?"
"Yes."
"She is here?"
"Not yet but soon he'll return and I'm sure he will help you."
"How?" Pon asked panting as he slowly lose his energy.
"What is-" Ventor said as he turned around and saw the demon god running towards them.
"Oh, Fuck. UNSUMMON ALL" Pon said as he unsummon all of them and jumped down and blocked the hole and rushed to the record.
While Pon was running to the record he hear a loud whipping sound and suddenly the Demon Gods mana energy suddenly vanished. Pon was confused about what happen outside and he tried to sneak out slowly without making any sound.
Outside he saw someone with long hair from behind walking away from the Demon God's body sliced in 3 the neck and the waist. The whipping continued as the person with long hair walked away. Pon thought that the person might be who he think it is he summoned Hisses when the person was far away enough.
"Hey, look there is that Medusa?" Pon said as he whispered scared that he can still be heard.
"I can't see from this away I have poor eyesight lemme see." Hisses said as he crawled towards the walking person.
"My Lord?" Hisses said to call out the Medusa and the person turned their head and ran towards hisses with a furious look on her face. "WHERE ARE MY EGGS?!" She yelled at hisses looking down at him as he shrink and crawled back from fear.
"T-Th-There are safe~" Hisses said to Medusa while she stared him down. "WHERE!?" She yelled again as her hair rise and transformed into snakes. "My human master, have them~" He said panting as he look and point at Pon hiding behind a giant boulder.
"Why the heck did he look and point at me," Pon said as he hide and slowly run towards the hole but medusa grabbed him by his tunic from behind and asked Pon about her eggs.
"Where are they?"
"Who~"
"MY EGGS!?!" Medusa yelled again with a furious face as stared at POn.
"Hagh! Wait, Here!" Pon pulled out the eggs while he is panting.
'Hah. My eggs are safe." Medusa sighed and smile after seeing her eggs again and walked away.
"Hey, Hisses pst." He called out Hisses.
"I thank you truly for all of the things you helped me with without your help she would have killed me." Hisses said to Pon as he lowered his head.
"If you really are thankful how about you continue working for me until we leave this continent.
"Of course how could I forget that you guys want to leave this place."
"Yes."
"I have a better and faster way." He said to Pon smiling.
"Okay, I'll listen," Pon said as he grabbed and lift up Hisses and put him down on his shoulder.
"Hisses!? What are you lets go." Medusa looked back and called out Hisses.
"Coming My, Lord." He said.
"What is it," Pon asked curiously leaning to his shoulder.
"Let's talk about it in our cave." He said and jumped out of Pon's shoulder and followed Medusa.
"Okay, then." He said and run to follow them.
On the way, Pon and hisses talk as they followed Medusa. Medusa doesn't care about Pon also following and still hugging and talking to her eggs.
"Human I'm grateful that you save keeper and my eggs and I also know that you did not follow us for no reason you want something in exchange for saving them right?" Medusa said as she still looking at her eggs.
"Umm… Yes." Pon answered.
"Well, before you say what you want, can I have the name of my children's saviour?" Medusa said to Pon as he stared at him smiling.
"You can call me Pon." Pon said to Medusa.
"It's nice to meet the saviour of my eggs. What might be something that I can help you with?"
"My Lord, Pon wants to leave this island and with your ability, you can help him." Hisses said to Medusa.
"I see, I can help you with that but it will take a year."
"A year, why a year?"
"I have a special ability or a unique skill called 'Cargo' that can teleport a max group of 100 people except myself and currently have a max range of about 5000 miles whatever that is, the skill's cooldown is a year," Medusa said.
"Wait, a special ability, are you a magical beast? And I just realized that we can understand each other."
"Honestly I don't know how but I know many languages and yes I am a magical beast."
"Ah, I see thanks," Pon replied and stood up from the rock he is sitting on and walked out of the cave.
"Wait," Medusa said and Pon looked back and listened. "Help me and I will repay you, if you want an item that can be found outside this place I can get it for you," Medusa said as she gestured her hand to the rock offering a sit.
"Okay, what is it," Pon asked smiling.
"I'm assuming you've already been to the third island?"
"Third?"
"I guess not. This island has 3 main islands the island we are currently on is the speed island your base is located on the strength island the third one is sorcerer island where that other Medusa is on."
"I'm following until you said other you?"
"Yeah, I'm confused too how that can happen but there are other Medusa's but I can say that out of all of us I'm the most powerful. And the other one is at the sorcerer island."
"No way, you beat that giant monster with ease and you want me to fight that other you. No way."
"No of course you have no match against him even I am."
"See if you can't how can I?"
"I can beat her, easily with no effort but she has an artefact that can turn someone to stone the 'Aegis Shield'."
"Wait, didn't you have that ability too?"
"What do you mean?"
"You have the ability to petrify someone by looking at them and turning them to stone."
"What are you saying? I don't have that ability neither does she." Medusa said confused by just what Pon said to her.
"What? If remember correctly Medusa has that terrifying ability. Now there is another question that is going to bug me again." Pon thought to himself as he shake his head and click his tounge.
"This is what I want you to do, you have to sneak your way in and steal that shield and if you are caught they will not use the shield on you because the shield has a cooldown of one week and her level is way below mine and with your equipment, I think you can do it."
"Why do you think she wouldn't use it on me?"
"Because she knows that I'm back and if she uses that now she knows that she will be vulnerable without that shield."
"Okay let's say she did use it on me and you manage to defeat her, how about me I'm gonna be turned to stone can you unpetrify me?"
"No, but if the shield can petrify it can also unpetrify too right?"
"Nope, the shield doesn't have that ability."
"How would you know?"
"Will let's say that I heard about that shield before."
"Please, help me hu- I mean Pon if I get petrified she would rule the entire continent and with that, you can't leave," Medusa said to try to persuade Pon into accepting his request.
"Did you see how the shield works?" Pon questioned Medusa while thinking about the story.
"The shield has our head and in the eye, it releases a beam of light that if you get contact on you will turn into stone."
"Fine, but you have to make a contract with me. Here." Pon said as he pulled out the contract scroll and created the agreement.
"There," Medusa said as she slide down the contract and Pon created a fireball burning the scroll and activating the scroll's contract.
[Both Parties Accepted the Contract]
[Contract Activated]
[Medusa will do one favor for Pon]
[Pon will have to take 'Athena's Shield']
"I will leave now we have to get ready about tomorrow."
"Here," Medusa said as she tossed a ring at Pon.
[Telepath's Greater Ring]
[A special ring used by witches to communicate from long distances using their mind]
[U Grade Item]
"Thanks," Pon said smiling and left the cave. The monsters outside seeing Pon came out of the cave alive scared them because no one other than the snakes came out alive. It scares them to think that Pon is working for Medusa.
Pon returned back safely to their base without a single monster attacking Pon. Pon summoned all of them and told them everything about what happened to the demon god, medusa, and the contract.
"Master, Are you telling me that the Medusa that has been trying to wipe all of the lizardmen is good?"
"Yes and No, Well the Medusa that I meet is not the Medusa that you know, the Medusa I meet is from a different universe."
"Uni- What?" Bite asked confusedly
"In simple terms, there are other Medusa's, she said there are 4 of them."
"I see," Bite said as he left angrily thinking about Pon helping Medusa.
"Wait, Bite!"
"Yes." Bite said while he clench his fist slowly the blood started dripping.
"I know that you hate Medusa for what she did to your race but like I said she is different from the Medusa you have been fighting. Bite replied by looking away.
"Please understand and she is the only one that can free us out of this continent."
"Yes, Mater I understand." Bite said and finally relaxed his fist.
"All the Bosses, Metal, Hisses, Kleo and Heptasis and your party meet me later at my cave we will discuss our plan for tomorrow. Everyone agreed to meet later for now Pon went to the cave to go to the record wanting to talk to Amare about what happened.
"Oh, you're here, what happened you managed to kill him?"
"No."
"Well, of course, why did I even ask fell free to summon anyone we still have one free slot."
"No. No need, the Demon God is dead."
"How? No more importantly where is the corpse?"
"Why?
"Well that is the corpse of the Demon God and you can use him when you finally get a necromancer class, quickly go and store the corpse in your inventory or bag before it despawns, unlike the other monsters the Demon God is a system monster. GO!"
"O-oh Yes of course." On said happily and immediately left the record and went outside to store the corpse luckily Pon still have enough time before the corpse despawn. After storing the corpse in his space bag he went back inside to continue his conversation with Amare.
"Welcome back, now let's continue our conversation shall we?"
"Well, It's all thanks to Medusa because she is the one that killed the Demon God.
